This collection of short stories, memoir, journal entries, essays and poems spans decades of Alex Miller's life. Opening with a moving depiction of Miller's father leaving for war, it closes with a 2023 poem reflecting on solitude and creative labour.

Each piece responds to significant life events, engaging with works by prominent Australian artists and authors -including Janine Burke, Jacob Rosenberg, Sidney Nolan and Emily Kame Kngwarreye - who enriched Australia's cultural landscape.

Journey to the End of Time forms a companion to The Simplest Words and A Kind of Confession - three volumes constructing an intimate narrative of Miller's life writing works of quiet power and beauty. His wisdom and experience shine in this rewarding anthology.
